The 21st Century Fund

The 21st Century Fund for Delaware's Children is a public/private partnership to address the
special needs of at-risk children in Delaware. The intent of the fund is to provide experiences that help
children define their strengths, improve their self-esteem and build a sense of hope for the future.
Examples include sports camps, music lessons, prom tickets and other opportunities to achieve a
child's potential in a particular talent or interest otherwise not affordable or available to them.
Children up to age 21 receiving services from state agencies and community programs in Delaware
are eligible for funding.
